For example, sports arenas or public parks may have concession stands. Many department stores contain numerous concessions operated by other retailers. Similarly, public services such as water supply may be operated as concessions. The owner of the concession — the concessionaire — pays either a fixed sum or a percentage of revenue to the entity with the ability to assign exclusive rights for an area or facility. A concession may involve the transfer to the concessionaire of the right to use some existing infrastructure required to carry out a business (such as a water supply system in a city); in some cases, such as mining, it may involve merely the transfer of exclusive or non-exclusive easements.2/8/2011Affidavit is word that hails directly from the Latin meaning “to pledge their faith under knowledge of the law”.10/22/10 Is $250 ok to sell tonight? $200 if they hem and haw??10/21/10 unless otherwise specifiedinasmuch asward of courtin regards tounder ground of aggreived partyhereinafterherintime is of the essenceexpedientprima facie evidence

The literal translation would be "at first face", prima first, facie face, both in the ablative case. It is used in modern legal English to signify that on first examination, a matter appears to be self-evident from the facts. In common law jurisdictions, prima facie denotes evidence which – unless rebutted – would be sufficient to prove a particular proposition or fact. The term is used similarly in academic philosophy.
